Re: problem handling flash events with javascript

Surprised no one responded to this before, and I guess I just never noticed it for some reason before today, but events in Flash aren't handled by JavaScript, they are handled by ActionScript. And depending on how you created your FLA file, will vary on what version of ActionScript is used. It will either be AS2 or AS3. The logic and syntax of AS3 are very Java like, so if you've wrote any applications in Java before, you shouldn't have too much trouble. You call and require packages, and so on.

The only thing swfobject.js does is calls SWF movies without the need of embed or object tags, so any browser will open it the same way.

May be a few months too late of a post, but hope this helps nonetheless.
